Garage door roller Solidoodle spool mount

thingiverse

Create a filament spool holder using garage door rollers as ball bearings with provided files from Thingiverse. Modify and print various parts in OpenSCAD. Assemble by attaching mounting blocks to supports, inserting innerspacer-glued rollers into PVC pipe, fitting spoolsleeve cones onto filament reels, and securing everything with tension nuts. Attach left and right supports to the printer using inner and outer brackets, ensuring a 3/4 inch PVC pipe length that fits across the printer without scraping on the supports. Decide whether to have filament coming off the spool directly into the print head or wrapping around through the hole in the back of the printer.
